At Barbell Coalition, our mission is simple: deliver speed training that develops faster, more powerful Cedar Park athletes. Speed isn’t just about running; it’s a key factor in almost every sport.
Whether you’re a baseball player sprinting to steal a base, a swimmer powering through the water, or a soccer player making quick cuts across the field, speed can make the difference between winning and losing.
So, how do we train athletes to become faster and more explosive?

Start With The Strength Foundation
Being fast & explosive requires producing a tremendous amount of force throughout the body in the fastest amount of time possible.
But first, we need to increase the maximum amount of force our body is capable of producing.
This is where heavy resistance training comes into the picture. Exercises like our squats, our bench presses and our weighted chin ups performed with adequate resistance & lower volumes helps our athletes get as strong as possible.
For athletes to become fast, they need to become strong.

Plyometric Training for Explosiveness
Once we’ve established a strength foundation, we emphasize plyometrics—exercises designed to increase explosiveness.
Plyometrics, such as box jumps, bounding, and lateral hops, help athletes develop the fast-twitch muscle fibers necessary for rapid acceleration.
Again, the goal is to enhance an athlete’s ability to produce maximum force in the shortest amount of time.
Incorporating plyometrics regularly, we make sure our athletes aren’t just strong—they’re quick off the mark.
This kind of explosive power helps athletes close gaps, make sharp turns, and get a step ahead of their competition.

Periodization
We implement a periodized training approach, meaning we adjust an athlete’s workload and exercises in phases to ensure continual progress without overtraining.
We strategically balance strength, power, and speed work to ensure athletes are peaking at the right time—whether it’s for their season or an important event.
This method allows us to gradually increase training intensity and push our athletes to new performance levels without burning them out.
Barbell Coalition Is the Place for Speed Training for Cedar Park Athletes
We understand that athletes face the unique challenge of balancing high school strength programs with outside training.
Our goal is to supplement and enhance their school training, focusing on techniques that might be missed in traditional programs.
We bring science-backed training methods, years of experience, and a personal commitment to helping every athlete improve.
At Barbell Coalition, we don’t believe in shortcuts. Building speed takes hard work, consistency, and attention to detail. But by combining the right strength, power, and speed work, our athletes leave faster, more explosive, and more prepared to dominate their sport.
